On December 16, Nicolas Testé will star as the bass soloist in Saint-Saëns’ Requiem in this year’s Christmas concert at Paris’ Maison de la Radio et de la Musique. The other of soloists will be Véronique Gens, Aliénor Feix and Julien Behr, with Cristian Măcelaru on the podium, and Olivier Latry on the organ. Also on the program for the evening will be Saint-Saëns’ Third Symphony, which, like his Requiem, features the organ, giving it an almost ritual majesty. A double ritual celebrated on the precise day of the anniversary of the death of Saint-Saëns, who died on December 16, 1921 in Algiers.
This concert will be broadcast live on France Musique and in video on ARTE concert and francemusique.fr.
